why is new year’s a scam? (new upload: every friday)

Welcome to where I spiral into everything from the myth of the New Year’s kiss to the crushing loneliness capitalism thrives on. Society's a joke, and I’m here to dissect it—ranting about isolation, relationships, government failures, and why everything is low-key (or high-key) trash. It's chaotic, it's raw, it’s me. No advice, just vibes. Happy 2025, I guess.
